QMusic acknowledges the support and funding of the Queensland Government, Australia Council for the Arts and APRA AMCOS Page 3 President’s Report QMusic took another step along a new path in 2015, consolidating its financial performance while planning for growth opportunities. We began the year budgeting for a deficit, mindful of the need to view QMusic’s hard-won surplus as an investment tool rather than simply a safety buffer. The fact that QMusic was able to post another surplus in 2015 was due to the outstanding work of Joel Edmondson in his first year as executive officer and his remarkable team. Joel took over from Denise Foley, whose tireless work as executive officer enabled QMusic to thrive during some testing years and move into its third decade with confidence. Last year again brought political changes. While 2014 began with a reduced funding contribution from the former State Government, 2015 was marked by fluctuations at federal level. The changes to Australia Council funding drew widespread media attention and strong reactions from parts of the national arts industry. QMusic had a positive conversation with representatives of then Arts Minister Senator George Brandis on the importance of the live music industry to the nation’s economy and culture. QMusic also appeared before a Senate Inquiry into arts funding, called after the changes were announced to Australia Council funding. The inquiry has so far proven little more than a political exercise. The most disappointing part of late 2015 – and this continued into 2016 – was the State Parliament’s implementation of lockout laws. QMusic fought against these flawed laws for many months, co-ordinating meetings of stakeholders and also meeting with elected officials. We outlined the impact these laws will have on this state’s outstanding live music industry. Unfortunately, the music industry was not given due consideration during the political process. The live music industry will face challenging times when these laws are introduced unless the State Government can provide assistance to prevent similar problems experienced by Sydney’s locked out regions. The Government has made promising steps in this regard but more needs to be done. The industry can be assured that QMusic will continue this discussion with Government. There were many successes in 2015 – most notably another memorable staging of BIGSOUND. We appreciated the presence of Arts Minister and Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk at the official BIGSOUND opening, which also drew keynote speaker Peter Garrett and many of the speakers, partners and delegates who would make the event a success. Denise Foley performed at her usual level in her role as BIGSOUND producer, joining with programmer Nick O’Byrne for three days and nights that showcased inspiring discussion and an outstanding live program. I thank Joel, Denise, Nick and the many BIGSOUND team members who worked at remarkable levels to make the event successful. I very much look forward to Maggie Collins joining Nick as joint programmer in 2016. BIGSOUND and the Queensland Music Awards remain the major events for QMusic. The QMAs have been well received at the Powerhouse, supported most generously by Hutchinson Builders and Bank of Queensland. The awards were very well supported by the state’s artists, showcasing the depth of talent spread across Queensland. The QMusic team arranged our first networking nights in 2015. These quarterly events were made available to QMusic’s members to help spark industry discussion, ideas and connections. I thank the many members who attended the first two of these events and look forward to seeing more in 2016. We thank our members for their loyalty, feedback and unflagging support for the music industry and we continue to look for ways to enhance the value of membership. QMusic is only able to continue to serve the industry because of partnerships with the likes of Virgin Australia and oztix. In 2015, these organisations were again key partners for QMusic. I thank Virgin Australia and oztix for their support and look forward to continuing this most energetic and supportive relationship. I also thank APRA and the many other partners who helped to make 2015 successful for QMusic. I also thank Arts Queensland for its ongoing commitment to helping to develop Queensland’s music industry. We very much enjoy our relationship with Arts Queensland and the input and value provided by the likes of Kirsten Herring and Rebecca Atkinson. Arts Queensland always provides its time and insights Page 4 Peter Garrett Keynote BIGSOUND 2015 Photo by Elleni Toumpas generously – and shows a genuine commitment to wanting to improve opportunities for Queensland artists. We look forward to continuing to work towards productive outcomes for the music industry. The QMusic board and staff have twice met for planning days in recent months to determine the next steps for the organisation. The board has formed sub-committees to help drive outcomes at a micro level. One of these sub-committees spearheads our first philanthropic program. This will be a major focus of 2016. I remain grateful to the QMusic board members for the energy, passion, advice and generosity that they freely provide. In 2015, we welcomed two new board members – Oztix founder and CEO Brian Chladil and Screen Queensland CEO Tracey Vieira. In the first months of 2016, we welcomed NR Barbi solicitor Natalie Strijland. The trio has already made a strong impact at board level and we look forward to their contributions in 2016. We farewelled Adam Thatcher and Peter Dann, who gave generously of their time and ideas during several years on the board. We wish them well and look forward to seeing them at QMusic events. We also farewelled Lynette Irwin from the board after 16 years. Lynette’s loss is significant but I am pleased to say that she will not be completely lost to QMusic. One of the most exciting elements of this year’s AGM is the bestowing of QMusic life memberships on Lynette and Denise Foley. These memberships were voted unanimously by the QMusic board in recognition of the tireless contribution that both have made to the state’s music industry. We could fill this annual report with the tales of Denise and Lynette’s contribution and Page 5 how that changed QMusic and the industry for the better. We congratulate them both on this rarely awarded honour and are proud that their work will be forever acknowledged with life memberships. I also congratulate the brilliance, innovation and energy of the QMusic team. This group does not know how to slow down. QMusic is fortunate to have such skilled staff – and such a committed network of contractors and volunteers – who go above and beyond for the industry. Our volunteers are exceptional. We are very fortunate to have an executive officer with the skill and vision of Joel Edmondson. He is superbly supported by Roxy Noori, Michelle Padovan and Sue McComber. Unfortunately, the impact of the 2014 state funding cuts meant that we farewelled Stacey Coleman from our staff in 2015. Stacey was a much- loved member of the office. We thank her for her contribution and we look forward to seeing Stacey at industry events. In 2016, the QMusic board will continue to focus closely on the next strategic steps for the organisation. The success of recent years has fired energy levels across QMusic and underlined the organisation’s opportunities to serve and develop the industry in Queensland. That success has always hinged on the support of you the Queensland music industry. We thank the industry again for its contributions during an important time for QMusic. We look forward to another exciting year during which we will continue to promote the importance, value and astonishing output of the contemporary music industry. Michael Crutcher President Luke Daniel PeaCoCk, Home ShowCase BIGSOUND 2015. Photo by Savannah Van der Niet Page 6 Treasurer’s Report 2015 was destined to be a challenging year. It was a year of significant transition for QMusic as an organisation and from a financial purview one of increasing uncertainty as we sought to build upon the tremendous successes of 2014 against a backdrop of reduced funding and a tight economic environment. As with all things in life, there were high points and low but through the skillful stewardship of the QMusic team ably led by its then newly appointed Executive Officer, Joel Edmonson, an initially budgeted loss of $26,674 was defied. We instead ended the year with a surplus of $30,437 with significant contributions coming from a substantial increase in BIGSOUND registrations, higher than anticipated QMA sales, workshop revenue, membership fees and a very welcome contribution from Brisbane Marketing. As has been a hallmark of QMusic for many years, expenses were decidedly constrained at some $25,000 below budget which allowed the uptick in revenue to filter through to the bottom line and thereby mitigate anticipated losses.

  • Augie March – Strange Bird
    AUGIE MARCH – STRANGE BIRD A BRIEF INTRODUCTION Welcome to Augie March, the biography. We are a five year old band, born and still living in Melbourne, Australia where music is alive every night of the week. Three of us were born and raised in the country outside of Melbourne and migrated to the city for schooling in various arts and humanities. At the moment we number five, having recently added an experienced pianist/piano-accordionist to an already accomplished, organic and adventurous group of people. He also teaches music copyright law part time, so nobody can put anything over us when it comes to publishing contracts. His name is Kiernan Box. Adam Donovan is, among other things, our lead guitarist. His style is adventurous and unorthodox. He treats his instrument like a formula one car driver treats his vehicle, and yet, to watch Adam on stage you might think otherwise. His favourite saying is - "There are many ways to skin a cat." We all admire truth and beauty at Augie March, but one of us surpasses the others in his pursuit of these objectives. His name is David Williams. He is the drummer and percussionist. His heroes are predominantly in the jazz field, but he takes as much inspiration from the stories of Charles Dickens, and to a lesser degree Rudyard Kipling's forays into verse. He has a small son called Ziggy. Singer/songwriter Glenn Richards is perhaps the most difficult member of Augie March to describe. This is largely because he is enigmatic and whether artistic people cultivate their own enigma or whether it comes naturally, it makes for a difficult task to profile them.

  • Like a Sustainable Version: Practising Independence in the Central Sydney Independent Music Scene
    Like a sustainable version: Practising independence in the Central Sydney independent music scene Shams Bin Quader A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Gender and Cultural Studies School of Philosophical and Historical Inquiry Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences University of Sydney 2020 DECLARATION I hereby declare that this submission is my own work and that, to the best of my knowledge and belief, it contains no material previously published or written by another person, not material which to a substantial extent has been accepted for the award of any other degree or diploma of a university or other institute of higher learning, except where due acknowledgement has been made in the text. Shams Bin Quader 22 April 2020 SHAMS QUADER i ABSTRACT Independent music is a complex concept. It has meant different things at different historical moments of popular music and within academic, music press and industry discourses. Even though what independent music refers to might not be substantive, it has tended to signify an oppositional ethos comprising practices related to maintaining distinction from commercialised popular music. Historical narratives of popular music reveal that independent music or indie, has been defined and re-defined, from signifying an ethos of resistance comprising anti-major record label and anti- corporatisation attitudes, to rubrics of sound aesthetics, marketing categories and niche audience segments. Its different connotations then should not be assumed. Comprehension of different dimensions of independent music call for theorisation of youth, rebellion, alternative cultures, and their connections with musical forms, along with production and distribution-related organisational infrastructures revolving around them.
